Being 24 hours without light triggered the demonstrations of Maracaibo . The city was closed this Thursday, July 12 from four sides. Circumvalation 1 and 2, La Limpia, Sabaneta, Pomona, Los Haticos, Milagro Norte, La Curva, Delicias and Avenida Libertador had restricted vehicular traffic.
"We are desperate, we have not had electricity for 24 hours, we do not have electricity, we do not have water , we can not buy food, we do not have money.Mr President, help us, listen to us.This is not life for anyone, "shouted Ms. Johana Leon, a resident of the Cañada Honda sector, where the electrical service has been interrupted since Wednesday at 8 am.
León was one of dozens of women who left with His children to close Circunvalación 1 after 10.00 am with the aim that the Government solves the problem.

"We can not, the food rots to us, how will it be possible, without money, everything is expensive and we lose our food", insisted the woman of 38 years, who demanded the return of service under the eyes of a contingent of the National Guard . "They do not do anything to us, they only ask us to open, but we will not do it until the light comes."
Franklin Parra President of the Neighborhood Association of the area, joined the demonstration. "It is already unbearable, we can not find how to sleep How our children sleep with the heat that makes Maracaibo We do not drink anymore The deadline for Omar Prieto has already been He said that he wanted to rule for the Zulia people, but what he brought was the destruction. "

Parra does not believe that the authorities will solve in the short term the electrical crisis that exists in the state. "We, the citizens, can not pay the responsibility of the government.The investment that I had to make for the electrical system was not done.They spoke of a schedule four o'clock, after six o'clock, and today we have 24 hours without electricity, not even the government has the answer for us because it has degenerated.

Three communities protested along Beltway 1 Karina Finol resident of Nueva Vía, also came to protest. "It is a crime against humanity, children are stung, we have scabies because we sweat because we are without light and we do not have water for us. It's horrible, I do not know what the government intends to do with us, they kill us slowly. "
In Nueva Vía, they also served 24 hours without electrical service so they decided to block the road with sticks and tree branches.
The demonstrations were reproduced in La Limpia. Marialbert Carrasquero said that he had more than 17 hours without electricity. "We are without light, without water, there is no interest in buying food, we want a solution now."

The chaos in the center
In the center of Maracaibo burned the garbage and rubble of the inhabitants of the surrounding areas. In the chaos of the strikes was added the desperation of public transport users, whose service was exacerbated at noon because the Metro de Maracaibo was not working because of power cuts.
Long tails were observed at various road stops and drivers usually used to buy between 50,000 and 70,000 bolivars the passage.
Long power cuts were also recorded in San Francisco municipalities, Jesús Enrique Lossada and La Cañada, where there are also areas they accumulate a day without service.
In social networks complaints multiplied by severe cuts. "Everything in Maracaibo emergency is a complete relief from chaos, help us have more than 20 without light and more," he writes Alida Sánchez (@alidagar).

] Two of the four Torres del Saladillo in #Maracaibo were without light for more than 24 hours. CORPOELEC staff did not even pass by to review the failure. People are suffering while government officials are given the best life

When Corpoelec says it will increase to 6 hours a day the cuts from current to Zulia, it makes reference to 2014. Until then they are outdated, since June and up to now this month, between 19 and 24 hours without light in Maracaibo.
